  1. 1. The chloroplast talks : Insights into the language of the chloroplast in Arabidopsis

    Author : Peter Kindgren; Åsa Strand; Barry Pogson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Arabidopsis thaliana; chloroplast; photosynthesis; retrograde communication; Mg-ProtoIX; oxidative stress; gene expression; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; Physiological Botany; fysiologisk botanik;

    Abstract : The chloroplast originates from an endosymbiotic event 1.5 billion years ago, when a free living photosynthetic bacteria was engulfed by a eukaryotic host. The chloroplastic genome has through evolution lost many genes to the nuclear genome of the host. READ MORE

  2. 2. Get in tune : chloroplast and nucleus harmony

    Author : Dmitry Kremnev; Åsa Strand; Francis-Andre Wollman; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Arabidopsis thaliana; chloroplast; development; gene expression;

    Abstract : Photosynthetic eukaryots emerged as a result of several billion years of evolution between proeukaryotic cell and ancestral cyanobacteria that formed modern chloroplasts. The symbiotic relationship led to significant rearrangements in the genomes of the plastid and the nucleus: as many as 90 % of all the plastid genes were transferred to the nucleus. READ MORE

  3. 3. The chloroplast lumen : New insights into thiol redox regulation and functions of lumenal proteins

    Author : Michael Hall; Wolfgang Schröder; Bob B. Buchanan; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Photosynthesis; thylakoid lumen; thioredoxin; pentapeptide repeat; proteomics; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : In higher plants oxygenic photosynthesis primarily takes place in the chloroplasts of leaves. Within the chloroplasts is an intricate membrane system, the thylakoid membrane, which is the site of light harvesting and photosynthetic electron transport. READ MORE

  4. 4. Regulation of chloroplast gene expression in higher plants

    Author : Anna Furo Tullberg; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein tyrosine kinase; plastoquinone pool; redox; Pisum sativum; Sinapis alba; petB; psaB; chloroplast; gene expression; Physiological biophysics; Växtfysiologi; light harvesting complex II;

    Abstract : Chloroplast gene expression is regulated by developmental and environmental signals. It has been proposed that there is a direct coupling between electron transport in biological membranes and gene expression (J. F. Allen, 1992, Biochim. READ MORE

  5. 5. Targeting and function of CAH1 : Characterization of a novel protein pathway to the plant cell chloroplast

    Author : Stefan Burén; Göran Samuelsson; Muriel Bardor; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Arabidopsis; chloroplast; endomembrane system; CAH1; protein targeting; N-glycosylation; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Abstract : The chloroplast is the organelle within a plant cell where photosynthesis takes place. This organelle originates from a cyanobacterium that was engulfed by a eukaryotic cell. READ MORE
